I've created the update.zip file but when I boot into recovery and try to install it says:

Amend scripting (update-script) is no longer supported.

Amend scripting was deprecated by Google in Android 1.5.

It was necessary to remove it when upgrading to the Clockworkmod 3.0 Gingerbread based recovery.

Please switch to edify scripting (updater-script and update-binary) to create working .zip packages.

I'm new to rooting and I have no idea what any of this means haha. How can I fix this problem so I can use this great theme?
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
you have to go into your settings and set stuff up....for your phone. In the zipthemer you have to set it up for your phone then it will do the editfy stuff for ya, i had the same problem.
[Android Themes] MovingColors:
Everything works perfectly now, thanks! :D
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Did that work for ya bud ?
[Android Themes] MovingColors:
Yes, I didn't know that I had to specify the device under settings; once I did that it was a piece of cake. Thanks again :)

hey 1 question, i'm trying to make a wallpaper chooser apk, but when i install it it force closes, how do you make it work?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Hi. Could you give a little more info? Are you trying to make an app just like mine, or with wallpapers as part of the app. Any info you can give about when/what causes the app crash would also help. Hopefully we can get it all sorted out :)
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
i'm trying to make an app like yours, it force closes when you go to menu, wallpaper, then select the wallpaper app.
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Okay kewl. Are you be able to send me a logcat file? PM me with it if you're able to. DON'T post it on the forum because they usually have sensitive information in them.

I have no reception icon in red, it remains blank.

Why?

I can not have the same icon as the picture
[Android Themes] nhnt11:
Um, its supposed to turn red only when you're connected to the net. Does it turn green for you without this theme?

aesthetics fix request:

I noticed that on the options menu using Launcher Pro, the notifications and preferences icons have a soft glow that doesn't match the other icons

can this be fixed?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Hi, i was wondering if you were still having problems. A screenshot of your home screen would help to troubleshoot. You might just have an installation error (it happens to people sometimes). So if you want to try just uninstalling the app and reinstalling it, feel free to try that first. Just be sure to switch to the system theme before uninstalling.

Re: Launcher Pro. The next update is going to have full launcher pro theming. I thought of a way to keep it OPTIONAL for people, so everyone should be able to be happy (hint: it will work kinda like theme chooser wallpapers).

It's taking a while to get this done. I just started a new job and, needless to say, I have been really busy with that. I hope to have the update out by the end of the weekend :)
[Android Themes] twedie:
Hi,

Here are my screen.

There are icons in red and other white
[Android Themes] alanwu:
Awesome Theme! Thank you very much!

It will be a great idea if you can add the icons for the following apps.

WhatsApp, PingChat!, Financisto and Google Translate.

Thanks again for your effort. :)
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Thanks for posting the shot. Things actually look pretty normal for you. When you're not connected to Google's network, your wifi, cell signal, 3g icon etc are grey. You may be having a data connection issue rather than a theme issue. Do you get different results when using other themes like cyanbread?

Woo hoo launcher pro theming!

[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
AAAAANNNNDDD all the themes are updated!

There are now all the CM7 themes, a LauncherPro theme for each color, and the chameleon theme. The chameleon theme is like the other LauncherPro themes, but automatically changes color based using theme chooser.

Enjoy!

P.S. I'll be working on updating the direct downloads now, but might not be able to finish them until later tonight.

EDIT: Direct Downloads are now updated
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Already downloaded, lol !!!!!
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
And the award goes to...

I'm really disappointed in Bernard Koi*** and Gregory Ern***. They were the first two people to steal chameleon.apk. And yes, the android market gives me their full contact information. Didn't your mom teach you not to steal?
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Dude that sucks, I'm running your orange or blue all the time. These look great and pretty straight forward. I just bought your red one, now I have your green, blue, orange and now your red one. Great work man!!!!!!!!!

[Android Themes] virus2013:
Hey guys,

I just flashed Ginger Villain 2.1, which is based on the lastest CM7. I installed Minimal Magic from the market and when I switched in Theme Chooser, I had a FC of com.android.launcher. I rebooted but same issue. Can you help ? I even cannot switch back to the other theme !

EDIT : I found a solution... Between two apparitions of the popup, I quickly pressed the search button and typed "Theme Chooser", from where I could change the theme for another one. And now, everything is ok
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Re: Osully: The home button on the app drawer, the trash can icon, and the item selected highlight (like when you click on a contact thumbnail on the people widget).

Re: Raigeagainsttx: Try searching for "UpwardSpiral" on the android market. It's there, I promise.

Re: Scuddnet: Could you tell me a little more about what effect you're trying to accomplish? I don't fully understand right now.

Re: Virus2013: I'm glad you were able to get un-stuck. Are you able to PM me your logcat from when you were having the force closes? I'd definitely like to fix that if possible. Also, do any of my other themes work for you?
[Android Themes] rageagainsttx:
I just looked again, not there for me :(
[Android Themes] scuddnet:
I am using Orange Octane, i am trying to use the new orange icon for the messaging app in place of the default icon for go sms. So basically i want to use the new orange icon instead of the default go sms one. I think the only way to do this is to download the icon as separate image and use launcherpro's custom icon feature and select it from the gallery.

[Android Themes] mantorp:
What do you mean? Are they claiming one of your creations as theirs?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Here is a direct link to the android market page for blue bionic. If this shows that it can't find it, you might have something else going on with your particular phone. Let me know and I'll do whatever I can to help:

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.upwardspiral.lp.blue_bionic&feature=search_result

Re: mantorp: They weren't claiming it as their own. Of the first 3 purchases of the app, two were purchased and immediately cancelled (i.e. purchased, copied, then refunded). It's not a huge deal. I never did these themes for the money or to get rich, it's just a bit disheartening to see something like that happen. People really are that shameless. As it stands right now, for every two apps that are bought, one is stolen. I could add copy protection, but I'm concerned it might at times cause issues for people so I've decided not to.

I didn't plan on writing that much; this has all got me thinking. I want to say an extra special thank you to all the people who have bought the donate themes or legitimately bought the chameleon theme. Each and every one of you are capable of stealing these, but you haven't. It means a lot to me and I really appreciate all the support you've all given :D:D:D:D

P.S. more than a few people have actually stolen the donate version of my themes. You people are freakin' idiots. I literally copy the resource file over from the free version for every update. The only, and I mean ONLY difference between the two is that the package name has a "d" at the end. I get a kick out of it every time I see it just because of how idiotic people are. /rant. Seriously though, I do really appreciate all the support everyone has given (monetary or otherwise). Cheers!
[Android Themes] explorer-10:
sorry if this has already been asked, but are the themes compatible with MDPI devices?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Hey scuddnet, I'll get that icon to you probably tomorrow night (crashing for the night now).

Better Keyboard

I was wondering if you had thought about making a set of better keyboard themes for those of us who use it. I was so excited today when I found out that you had made themes for us Launcher Pro users. Thank you so much!
[Android Themes] ra5849:
Very nice the orange...
[Android Themes] nhnt11:
I was thinking about that too. UpwardSpiral, wouldn't it be better to have a wallpapers.xml (in the drawable folder) with all the wallpapers defined in it, and have your app load wallpapers from that? That way we could have as many as we want.
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
That's the one im on, it matches the recovery!!!!!
[Android Themes] chomafin:
Thanks for the LP+ and CM7 Themes. They look great.

Would there be any chance of getting a matching theme for Pure Grid Calendar by Koxx?
[Android Themes] acc49ers:
Is there a way you can make the themes flashable or metamorph compatible so I can use it with ZipThemer? Since Theme Chooser causes problems with other applications like Widget Locker and Autostarts. That way I can just flash this theme and disable Theme Chooser.
[Android Themes] rageagainsttx:
I still cannot find the Blue Bionic LP widget theme in the market. Sad panda :(

Can someone post the apk so that i can get it that way?
[Android Themes] TriggerCCN:
Is the theme installed on your SD card or internally?
[Android Themes] mikeymop:
I'd love to see minimal magic, in android green with the thin honeycomb progess bars. Would you be able to build a theme like that?
[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Re: kevin2516/nhnt11: It only supports 9 wallpapers right now. When I first made theme chooser wallpapers, I tried to make it with an xml file defining the wallpapers, but I wasn't as good at things back then and kept on getting errors when trying to compile the app. I wanted to get it on the market, so I did it the way I knew how. I'll revisit this to see what's possible in the near future.

Re: twedie: That's really odd. I don't know where the white would come from. Basically, the only color options you have are dark grey (no signal), light gray (signal, but not connected to google), green (unthemed signal and connected to google), and red (themed signal and connected to google). Is it an official CM7 ROM you have, or a port? Also, are you using any metamorphs besides Dont Panic's? Hopefully we can get this sorted out.

Re: Marijnrombouts: Are you talking about the blue boxes on the left side of the widget in agenda view? Those are actually defined by google, not the widget. To change the color, you have to access your google calendar from the computer (calendar.google.com) and change the color you want for your primary calendar.

Re: marpo22: Exactly what user7618 said. Theme chooser overrides any other themes or rom styles.

Re: TriggerCCN: I'll add better keyboard to the list :)

Re: chomafin: I'll add that to the list too :)

Re: acc49ers: There isn't anything right now other than what Dont Panic has made (which is pretty awesome by the way)

Re: rageagainsttx: I'll get some direct downloads up on the main page as soon as I'm done with this post...

Re: mikeymop: No additional colors are planned for the near future. You never know about the future, but nothing right now. I'm toying around with the progress bar, but It would be more of a tweak of the existing look, rather than the really skinny honeycomb look.

Whew! I'll get to uploading those apps now. EDIT: They're now in the downloads section. Right below the basic series download links.

Thanks for your time... If you need a tester.. PM me !!!

[Android Themes] UpwardSpiral:
Hi San000. The only way to replace those icons is to modify my themes. I think you might have already talked with Dont Panic about that.

OSully, you've had luck with that, haven't you? Care to chime in about what process you use?

Crash, I'm always working on adding more to the theme. The battery from steel blue really does look great. The only problem is that to apply it, I'd have to remove the stock battery icon, which I'm near positive a ton of people would miss. Here's to hoping for some kind of partial theming options in the future for theme chooser.
[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
New in-call stuff looks great. Thanks once again.

Edit: and thanks for the darker orange progress_horizontal. I like the new background on it too.

[Android Themes] explorer-10:
got these posts over from ModMyMobile:

is it possible to change themes WITHOUT always rebooting?
[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
Yes. Get this free app from the market: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tenthstone.notification
[Android Themes] explorer-10:
it only addresses the notification bar. It won't help with any other querks that a reboot will resolve though...
[Android Themes] OSully:
I have two silly requests.

1 - The google voice standard icon is froyo themed. Any chance to have the GB themed google voice icon instead?

2 - I use GO SMS - it's leaps better than stock. What pisses me off though is that you can't choose a stock GB notification icon to match the theme. I don't know if it's possible, but it'd be awesome to have the stock GB icon themed over the existing default icon.

EDIT: Just saw your post. When I add my own images to the theme, I basically just use apktool to extract the apk, then go into the projects folder and replace the images I want to replace. Then just zip it back up, and sign the file - you'll get a "signedBlueBionic.apk" or whatever file to use. It should install with no problem.

On a side note, if you want to make any other changes, like add a percentage battery, you can run the theme through UOT at http://uot.dakra.lt/kitchen/. You can also change all kinds of other stuff as well. I run it through there to get a percentage battery, and to add some other images not changed by the theme.

Be careful changing out PNG files - if you accidentally delete a png or remove anything, the theme will not install properly. THat's been my experience, at least. Also, when you install, you'll get some sort of popup error about the sizes not be defined or something like that. Just ignore it.

SECOND EDIT: I just realized version 1.40 is over 9 MB - UOT will not take a theme file larger than this.
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Cm60 might have some changes to the apks for the zipthemer.. I'm trying to figure it out....If i just flash the rom im good.. But if i flash the zip that i made of blue bionic it throws the phone into a bootloop.... Any suggestions . Thank you.. Please PM me..

The CM7 for the captivate just got a nightly update that add the recovery menu along with the reboot menu. Is it possible to change up the metamorphosis files for the red version (the other versions also) so it does not break the recovery menu being accessible from the power button long press? I LOVE this theme and especially the dialer from the metamorphosis file. Thanks ahead of time.

CrashV2010 and RockRatt: I just updated to the latest nightly as well, didn't have any problems. Are you using ZipThemer? If so, did you rebuild the flashable zip after you updated your rom?
[Android Themes] RockRatt:
No I didn't use zip themer. Should I have? I just used metamorph. I did not rebuild it I guess. I picked use existing theme, picked the already metamorph file, then started the app. It did seem to be building it and all was applied correctly. Bit when I hold down the power menu I lost the recovery link. The stock only had reboot and recovery. I did reapply the red remix theme in theme Chooser, then applied the Morphs for the dialer and first the full metamorph file.

oh crap i have to do that lol.... So if i rebuild the zipthemer zip with cm7 60 installed.

Edit : The 4g icon up top is different.
[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
Yes, that is a must. ZipThemer builds new flashable .apk's. If you are using a zip built from the older rom, you are installing the old framework-res.apk and old SystemUI.apk.
[Android Themes] CrashV2010:
Thank you sir for the explanation....
[Android Themes] Dont Panic:
Great post. My guess for this was that it was intentional, so themes couldn't interfere with your ability to unlock or reboot the phone. The volume didn't fit in that theory, yours makes more sense.
[Android Themes] RockRatt:
Ok thanks for the input. I do have one other question though. Once I build it with zipthemer and it created the new ADDONMORPH.zip and the undo zip. Do i flash this in recovery now? Or do I THEN use metamorph to apply it? Sorry for the noobish question as I had only used zipthemer a couple times and have ONLY been using metamorph app to apply your addon themes since I started using red remix. I had used zip themer and then flashed it in recovery cwm in the past on froyo. I just want to make sure of the steps before I flash it since it has been rebuilt. Thank again.

Yes, after building the zip with zipthemer, flash it from recovery. If you have any other problems, feel free to PM me.

Search is down....So

1. Can we get maybe get minimum icon for chompSMS (for now I used the desktop visualizer for mail and launches chompSMS because green/blue throws off my dock look)

2. How did you get your pulldown from the screenshot of Minmium Magic

I have everything else like the screenshots, except my pulldown has green bars under the synblos instead and icons (symbols) look a bit different.

Is this because you use LauncherPro?...I have ADW Launcher (built into the rom and overtaken by the EX version I have installed)

Edit: Great Job on themes BTW!

Love your work!!!!!! I have a request I wanted to use the uot kitchen to change out the battery icons in your red remix theme but because you do such a detailed job with your themes I can't upload it to the kitchen because the cm7 themes can't be larger than 9 MB.
